If You're Smart—

In the glittering, industrial sprawl of Saturn’s moons, a brilliant but idealistic scientist wrestles with a ruthless magnate. Dr. Claud Kellog has finally completed his “Antichron” device, a breakthrough that could reshape interplanetary trade, and he’s approached by Wolf Carmichael, the self‑styled “Wolf of Saturn,” who offers a partnership that smells of exploitation. Carmichael’s slick proposal promises funding and distribution, yet his terms would leave the inventor with little more than a name on a patent.

The clash soon drags Kellog’s personal history into the fray. His family’s modest inter‑satellite freight line, a lifeline for countless miners and traders, has already felt Carmichael’s heavy hand through taxes, quarantines and forced bankruptcies. As Kellog walks the bustling streets of Saturnport, the sight of the mogul’s monopoly fuels his resolve to protect his creation—and his legacy—from being swallowed whole. The story sets the stage for a high‑stakes showdown between visionary science and cut‑throat capitalism.
